The California Jobs Initiative and other groups support suspending AB 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act. Are you in favor of suspending the law? Why or why not?

I support AB 32, although I would consider revising some of its provisions. I would not suspend it. Like the California Small Business Association, I want to be sure the timing and costs are appropriate and achievable. We may need to help small businesses comply -- with tax credits or loans, perhaps. But AB 32 is about doing what we can in California to be part of the solution to global warming, and that's something I support.  AB32 is not a job killer, in fact it invites innovation and new technologies to support a clean environment for future generations.
